[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse 1]
DI can see her in that water
AChurch dress hung up in a tree
BSplashing flirtin' laughin'A, teasin' me G
DThat afternoon of secrets
ASwimming naked in a pool of dreams
BLast high school summer dripping
Adry by Sycamore Creek G
[Pre-Chorus]
EShe kissed me one last time
AHeadin' home
EAnd I'm still haunted by what she said
When I'm alone A
[Chorus]
She said you gDot a chance to be
AFree of all this small town strings
BThat tie the rest of us down
GShe said boy quit your hanging around
DTake that guitar and run
AFaster than the setting sun
BYou can write a song later about my A
Gmemory
EYou can always come back
You can always come back A
To Sycamore Creek D
[Verse 2]
DWell the guitar made the magic
AAnd I just hung on for the ride
BI walked amongst giants played A
with legends side by sideG
DShe came to see me in New Orleans
AAnd on a tour bus after the show
BI kissed goodbye to the one I never A
Gshoulda let go
[Chorus]
DShe said you got a chance to be
ASo wild on those guitar strings
BStage lights in every town
GSo head up when you're hanging around
DTake that guitar and run
AFaster than the setting sun
BYou can write a song later about my A
Gmemory
EYou can always come back
You can always come back A
To SycamoreD Creek
[Verse 3]
DWell I knew she'd gotten married.
AAnd I always forget the guy's name
BBut he played tight end the year A
that we won district G
DIt got bad and it got ugly
AThrough tears one night she called
BI drove ten hours to the water A
GI couldn't resist it
[Chorus]
DI said girl you got a chance to be
AFree of all these small town strings
BCut the ties that keep you down
GI said girl quit your hanging around
DTake this money and run
AFaster than the setting sun
BShe soaked my shirt crying over A
Gmemories
EShe said don't ever come back
No never come backA
